Tripura Sundari Temple special trains have officially started operations to manage the massive influx of devotees arriving for the Diwali Festival 2026. Specifically, thousands of pilgrims and tourists from across India and abroad are gathering at the sacred Mata Tripureswari Temple located in Udaipur. Furthermore, railway authorities have launched these dedicated unreserved Train-on-Demand (TOD) services to guarantee safe, convenient, and hassle-free travel across the region.
Verified train schedules and route connectivity
The Northeast Frontier Railway has introduced specialized train services covering crucial regional routes to support festival travelers. Specifically, the special services connect Agartala with Sabroom—passing directly through Udaipur for easy access to the temple—as well as the Agartala-Dharmanagar corridor. Additionally, these unreserved LHB-rake trains consist of general second-class coaches and specialized compartments to handle peak seasonal demand.
| Special Train Service | Route Corridor | Operational Dates & Timings |
|---|---|---|
| Train No. 05638 / 05637 | Agartala to Sabroom | Operated on November 8, 2026 |
| Train No. 05644 / 05643 | Agartala to Sabroom (via Udaipur) | November 9 & 10, 2026 (Depart AGTL at 2:15 PM, reach Sabroom at 4:35 PM) |
| Return Service (05643) | Sabroom to Agartala | November 9 & 10, 2026 (Depart Sabroom at 5:00 PM, reach AGTL at 7:35 PM) |
Furthermore, these special operations accommodate the heavy surge of daily commuters and spiritual visitors heading toward south Tripura. Consequently, passengers avoid severe highway congestion and experience smooth transit during the peak festive celebration window.
Ministerial welcome and regional tourism boost
Tripura Transport Minister Sushanta Chowdhury has publicly welcomed this vital railway initiative. Specifically, the minister noted that these dedicated transport services will immensely benefit devotees visiting the Tripura Sundari Temple.
Furthermore, local businesses and hospitality sectors have experienced a remarkable surge in visitor engagement. Therefore, as Tripura Sundari Temple special trains continue operations throughout the festive season, regional tourism and passenger connectivity reach unprecedented levels.
